Nobody Lives In NYC’s Strangest Townhouse… Why?

- This apartment is polarizing, but thats why its great. I think the real reason Im afraid of it is because of the price tag, but thats only because I haven’t hit my professional peak yet and living here would put me in the poor house - Once i do Im asking the realtor for the keys… we can all dream right? Id live in this Brooklyn NYC Townhouse. How about you?

Thank you for reminding me that until my ship comes in with a millionaire at the helm, I'm simply out of luck. But if I should find that ship, I know where I'd like to live - of course the one for sale!

I did not win the billion dollars lotto, so.....
My mom grew up in Carroll Gardens, I am guessing the rental is on First Place. The one that's for sale, has me stumped on the Street...lol. My grandfather bought our building in 1950 for $5,000. It is on Woodhull Street, which is less than two blocks from First Place. Grandpa willed the house to my mother. The craziest part of this is how much my mother and her friends could not wait to move out of that neighborhood. Back in the day it was called Red Hook, or South Brooklyn. Today, all of her friends wished they would have held onto the properties...lol. My mom still has hers and it is worth a fortune.
@@vincentgoupil180 Makes sense, I did not recognize the President Street block. Thanks for the info.
Bed-Stuy also had a dicey reputation!
@@vincentgoupil180 I OFTEN WONDER ABOUT THAT!! 🤯🤯 It looked sketchy from the video.
So the town houses in this neighborhood have not been chopped up! Very nice! If I had four million bucks laying around I’d buy that second one.
I love the layouts! I agree!
I have to go with loving them both because they are beautiful, newly renovated, expensive, in a great neighborhood. I also hate them because I cannot even think of affording one myself.
For the money being spent on these townhomes, my choice would be to buy. Especially with the rental income to help.
such incredible properties!
Absolutely
Those were the best apartments that you have ever shown us and you have shown us some beauties. But these I just love.
They are houses.
No contest for me, the townhouse for sale is superior. For one thing, it retains some of its 19th century character, while the rental was stripped of everything other than the fireplace mantels, and sterile. Living in Dallas, still can’t get over these prices - 4 million here buys a fantastic mansion or country estate with acreage. Imagine if the people first living in those houses 125+ years ago could see them now, and market values. I don’t know when built but guessing the 1890s at the latest. Could be earlier, I suppose. Such history.
Houston - same here! I live between Houston & Beaumont. 50 acres, 3500sq brick home built in 2015 on the bay, MASSIVE barn, fenced pastures & chicken coop - we paid $450,000 (in 2015). The price has doubled in the last year though due to Blackrock. Our home appraisal in March 2022 was $950,000.
Cash should have presented the first one as "" Only 1,000 dollars a month if you can find 16 people to pay that amount to equal the 16,000 dollar monthly rent. """ Beautiful space.
If you’re in that kind of income bracket, you buy it outright and no landlord is going to refuse your best offer. Consider both townhouses for sale.
@@NormanF62 Then you are grossly overpaying. :)
Who tf wants to live with sixteen people. Hell no.
The best thing in that first over priced house, is that bathmat.
I absolutely love how you and other real estate agents work together to get the message out literally helping each other out. something I think the real estate agents in Sydney, Australia could possibly learn how to do. I like all these places it has so much character it would be difficult to choose for me personally
Wow- thanks to Rezwan for showing you those places. They are stunning, both of them!
I liked Rezwan's energy!
@@myrnabergen5342 Me, too!
Nothing like doing the waddle/shuffle from the tiolet to the bidet.
That French door oven! 🥰
The red stove/oven within the $4.5M brownstone looks like a professional chef's type. I also love the layout in which that house was designed. Both houses were nice changes from the usual ones Cash profiles--but, as in NYC, MAD EXPENSIVE! 😮😮
Cash these were absolutely beautiful properties!!! I went into fantasy mode. If I had the money I'd definitely buy. That was my dream kitchen and the window boxes where u can sit,nap and watch the world go by,yes!!! Also loved it the aura of the agent he seems sweet.
What lovely properties. I didn't get the agents name, but he seems like he would be great to work with.
Cash has the most fun videos. Super nice houses and I choose the $16,000 one with the minimalist backyard and claw foot tub.
I loved the 2nd one the most, but it was a close call.
In my 20's, I had a friend move to NYC and she rented a brownstone along with 2 others. I loved it then, completely original, and would give my eye teeth to live in it myself, if it's still standing. If it is, I'm sure it's modernized.
It was incredible! I agree
Wow! Nice to see how the 1%ers live!💰 Beautiful! I liked the 1st apartment best!
Both wonderful places. I lean more toward the second. I'd love to see the houses as they were when new. The probably had double parlors and servants quarters. These houses make me think of the stories and novels of Louis Auchincloss. He once wrote about being in real life in the home of a wealthy New York City family to meet a couple friends to go to a dance or some-such. The mother called up the stairs, "Don't forget your poils. goils!" ("...pearls, girls"). That New York accent originated from the wealthy Dutch and when New York was still Nieuw Amsterdam.
I just finished watching Gilded Age on HBO. Why these houses are laid out this way makes so much more sense now.
@@vincentgoupil180 I'm a New Yorker - and New Yorkers can't pronounce the "r" - we could pronounce the "th." Definitely not Irish/Italian.
New Yorkers, I'm one, can't pronounce the "r." That's why we pronounce New York - as New Yawk.
@@vincentgoupil180 I would say that one's accent is based more on location and the time spent there rather than on ethnicity.
@@GaelinW Not long ago I read a book called "Alone Together" which is about the hisory of apartments in America, especially New York City, and part of the book was about how the designs of apartments and single-family homes came to be designed for efficiency.
Please can you show also a few wheelchair accessible apartments, houses and lofts too and tell us the music and the interprets of your beautiful and awesome background music too! It would be nice to see such kind of wheelchair accessible things and get the information about the music which you use in your videos here in CZcams! Thank you for your efforts in this matter here and have a wonderful and peaceful day and enjoy your time with your family and friends and lovely greetings from Sarah!
I liked this comment and I hope Cash takes this into consideration because it is a very worthy angle to add to it all.
"Movin on up! To the West side! You finally got a piece of the pie!" Second one hands down. It has a blue star range that is red, it comes with it's own pet AND dungeon! LOL! Thanks for showing us what most of us could never have, or would ever be invited to! LOL! They are so expensive it feels like you should be charging admission just to watch! How much do we owe you? LOL!
Wow! The first place is awesome!!
And then I saw the second place!! 🤩
Cash, I subscribed to your your videos for your comments on apartment tours. You have the best sense of humor!! I always get a smile from your comments! Congrats on the baby news.
I LOVE BROWNSTONES!!! ❤️❤️❤️ I actually never thought about renting a whole brownstone!!! 🤔🤔🤔 If I had to choose between the two, I love the second for keeping that natural brownstone look. My only gripe about it is putting the kitchen in the front!!! I think that’s going to hurt the buyers. I would of definitely left it in the back and keep the first floor open!!! There’s other things that needs to be changed like the room with the stink. I wouldn’t pay 4 Million for it. Bring the price down a bit
Now that place definitely reminds me of a swank hotel! Very extremely nice 👍🏾
Love all of them ...if I could afford any of them, I'd take the 1st showing. The backyard space is to die for!
Very Very cool! Beautiful homes and I hope the right people who are in your area and the market mack beautiful lives in them. A very nice guy the realtor friend of yours, he was super chill. Diplomatic answer to your question of favorite listing. 💝🙏💝
Both these places are exquisite… beautiful finishes… thx for presenting a glimpse into lifestyles a lot of us could never imagine… l do love to see and dream, tho….🌿🌸
This is wayy nicer than the 3 bedroom 16K+ a month apartment you showed before. The one that used to be lived in by a famous actor
Love the chill vibe of the listing agent! Great homes.
Hands down I like the 2nd one a lot more...I love the way they renovated with warmer materials such as the kitchen floor etc. The garden's to die for and that apartment? For that price? Would be hard to find c that high end of materials used! I thought it was cool that the apt had it's own basement which added a ton of space. All around..prob my favorite or in the top 3..of all the videos I've seen. Can not afford it but it doesn't meen. I'm not exceedingly happy watching it. Just Toto spendy for me sadly 😜 Thank you for taking us there! 😊 Have a great day..week!
This is one of the best listings I've even seen, keep up the great work.
Both are lovely homes. If I had to live in NY, I’d want something like these to live in.
Would they be affordable?
@@seaside2001 To someone that has money yes… For me… I own a lovely home not in NY. I’d never buy there…
@@MadAudi Exactly. New York is a dump unless you have a ton of disposable cash. I live in a lovely place on the ocean for a fraction of the cost. I don't know how people manage there.
If handsome kitty Boyfriend comes with the house, I'll take it!!! 😻
I have that central vacuum system at my home too. It's pretty neat!!! And solar panels (from the link at the end of the video!?!?!?! If I have a spare 5 mil, I'll take it!!! Maybe I'll rent out the parking spot as an added apartment "for my cheap friends." 😛
Honestly, what do New York residents do for a living to afford this???
I realize I live in Arkansas where most rent in my area is below $1,000/month.
I just can’t imagine this. Wow.
We NATIVE NYers CANNOT Afford this. Its others who move here. We can NEVER FIGURE out how they do it. I'm a Bronx Native. Always had a house with a garage and huge trees. The yard I have now is plenty long and we kept the trees. I run around barefoot and have tomatos, potatoes, onions and also flowers. My upper deck (2nd story) has a bench swing. Lying on it you feel like you are in a tree house. But the Bronx gets a bad rap. Probably couldn't buy my house at the going price these days. NYC property tax is cheap compared to the rest of the Metropolitan area.
@@lisalaw715 Exactly. They get tax breaks. You hear black folks say "White Gentrification" well NYC is CLASS GENTRIFICATION. Millionaires come in buy SECOND/ THIRD / FOURTH homes there and chop it up charge a TON for rent, raise all the values of surrounding areas, then they fly out to LA where they have done the same & FLORIDA were they have done the same.
so i’ve watched Inventing Anna about 15 times now.. when i first watched in feb/march, it sparked my interest in new york apartment tours and such.. i find myself at your channel so much more than others bc of the daily uploads & interesting finds. also, cute fam! thnx 4 the content.
Just subscribed, after watching your vids forever. I love to see what is available in NYC... I live in a 1750 sq ft house with pool in Florida, just me and three small doggos, so seeing the small places with huge prices make me appreciate my place more and more!!!
It doesn't make me appreciate my place more. It is nothing like it. No comparison.
Fellow Floridian here! Hi! Welcome! Cash is amazing. I lived in NYC for about 10 years. Wouldn’t go back even if someone paid me to but I love these videos! Lol
Native Floridian too, but you couldn't pay me enough to move back.
@@reverie6034 It seems like more people are ready to get out of NYC than ever and the leap in already overpriced rents and sales is the primary reason (among other reasons). Everyone’s trying to figure out where to go. Not sure I could deal with Florida though. I have a hard enough time with the heat and humidity and bugs in northeast summers.
I would definitely purchase the one for 4.5 million.
That would be a great investment.
I agree 💯
I remember 30 years ago everyone was running away from the Gowanus Brooklyn area, for rent signs all over. Funny only after it got expensive people want to move in. With the mortgage and high property taxes you're looking at just over $21k a month. Every month you can't find a tenant you're bleeding money fast. This is why even 10 years ago investors moved to buying in Texas, Florida, Vegas etc
Great townhouses and Rezwan seems like a real cutie
I absolutely love everything you showed Cash in this video including the street with beautiful trees lined up outside, I mean "Wow" Very nice!! Love your videos ❤
Rezwan is stylin'! Love the matte black finish on the newels and stair rails in Option #1.
Both are beautiful dream townhouses with 0 flaws but at that price point I would expect that, my fav is the 1st place!
I would spend my whole time worried that I was going to break something in either house so I would never be comfortable. Thank you for showing us though. Fascinating! May you please take care and stay safe.
Great video as always👍😁
Two fantastic apartments with both different vibes. The rental has a more relaxed and fresh modern feel to it which I love. The second is more luxurious with high-quality finishes in the kitchen and elegant touches everywhere, it's too posh for me but it has the most splendid and desirable element, a frikkin hammam!!!! in your own NYC apt, who has that? Well thank you Cash, this was a great episode.
That was almost hard. The one for sale is a better move your paying almost the same monthly with the added rental and its yours. Backyard was beautiful. Love that mans energy
Wow those are really nice. I feel so poor after seeing these. Loved the back yards and all that space Whenever I hit the lottery I will hope to buy one of those. But for now I am blessed to own my home with no mortgage. Great video
I'm very intrigued by the people who live in the first home. The art, the decor, the organization... I am left wanting to know more!
I would like to think that the people renting the beautifully furnished rental bought the second place and that once all of their "stuff" is in place, the second unit would be even spiffier, if possible.
@@hissibling933 I wonder if Rezwan is the tenant of the $16,000 a month rental
Who in the hell has money to rent not own a place at that price point..16 thousand a month...do you know how many people you can house at that price point anywhere else a month...while its a spectacular place...that in my state would run 5 grand tops a month...i now see why we have so many New Yorkers moving south..
People who have money to launder.
Excellent music choice with today’s entry. Very laid back and enabled us all to dream what it would be like to live in one of these gorgeous places.
I may be biased, realtors who collaborate with Cash seem to be nice too.
Thanks for showing these, great to see all the details & features. I liked the first place the best, what's not to like, right?
I was wondering if/when we would see something in Carroll Gardens. It's nice to see a greener part of Brooklyn! Thank you. Also, would love to see a Cobble Hill listing and surrounding neighborhood tours, if possible.
My preference is the 2nd townhouse. It’s just totally more high-end than the other, while the other is really nice.
I guess if I ever win the lottery (lol), I know where I can go to find my dream place in the city!
Okay so let me get this straight: I spend 16,000 bucks per month on rent and cannot even have the basement floor for this house?
Anyway nice video and astonishing quality as always Cash :)
And you have to share your outdoor space with the basement tenants/people!
I believe you buy the whole house and if you choose to rent it out you can get $4,500. Or a family member can live down below.
Wow! love them both! Leaning slightly towards the rental, but would never pay that price for rent... surely if you were that rich you would buy! Love the little basement apt... l don,t think l would rent it out but keep it for friends, family. Rewan( sorry if misspelt?) seems very nice... not excitable or prone to sudden movement... he glides! Hope they are snapped up! Cheers luv!
"he glides" lol so very true
So nice CZcams exists, letting us inside places we could not go normaly 😍. Thanks for the visit
I love the sale unit. The finishes are gorgeous and even though I like and have antiques, I think they'd fit in quite nicely. I can't afford it either!
Love the outdoor space and the kitty.
It’s amazing how everything filmed in sequences on each individual residential property toured, is articulated by such outstanding verbosity! Totally very enjoyable. Verily fascinating from the angles and perspective vantage points used to produce these moderated videos on-site. Amazing workmanship.
Hello. It looks nice both places. Rezwan sure made himself comfortable in his clients home.
I just can’t believe how expensive housing is in NY. They’re lovely townhomes but I feel like the cost is just so inflated. Like everything else.
The cost may seem inflated but those two homes are some of the oldest in the country. You'd be paying for history too. 😛
Fr where I live you can get something the same size for way way cheaper instead of 4.5million maybe 600k where I live.
Cost is inflated everywhere. I wouldn't buy until prices prices settle again.
Oh, I agree. To my "normal world" brain, the first house should rent for about 5K, the basement apartment about $1K-$1,500. Alas, I doubt the world will ever be normal again...
@@lights_utopia1130 Where do you live? Utopia?
the second home is perfect for me, love the street, the style of the house, cannot afford it though, but it is the ideal home for me and family in NYC
The house for sale gives off very strong was a 3-4 unit building reverse rehabbed into two units. That room wirh the island with columns looks like it was the lobby and mail area. There doesn't feel like any organic flow to the house at all. No denying elegant high end finishes and rehab, but still feels unfinished as a place to live for a family or a couple. It feels more like floors for living individually.
Actually, many of the brownstones had either 1 or two families tops living in them. If you've seen one made into a 4 home apartment building, that tends to be a new thing.
@@skyydancer67 With the painted facades, and they only referenced it as a townhouse, its hard to tell if it's a brownstone or a greystone. Greystones were built for up to 4 families, and even though Brooklyn has the greatest amount of brownstones, both styles were built there. Either way, the place has poor living flow despite all the high end froufrou.
I love both! That bath mat though yikes. Lol
Love these!
Wow! Both are amazing but if I could afford to buy the second would be my choice in a heartbeat it's just the smartest investment 👌
Beautiful !!!!
Rezwan was awesome. More videos with Rezwan!
Cash, You can easily install any kind of shower head you want in in your own bathroom. You just have to unscrew the existing one. You can get one with a long hose, or a double one. You don't have to live in a fancy expensive apartment for that.
I got one of those big rain shower heads ...it sucked; I didn't have enough water pressure for it to work very well....I felt like the water was spitting on me...and taunting me
Those homes were gorgeous!
WAUW, amazing townhouses!
I love, love, love those brownstones..living in one of those would be a New York dream! I love both, but the second one is nicer. I would buy it..some good New York living!
I live in Detroit Michigan 😢 I wish I can afford an apartment in New York City like you. Love 💞😘💞 Detroit Michigan 😍😍
$16,000 a month to share backyard space?! Not a chance. For that amount, my downstairs neighbor has NO backyard privileges.
I want an oven with doors like that!
You can get one for approximately $20,000.
Both places are so beautiful and loved both backyards. I could live in either place very easily. Thanks for sharing it's so fun looking at all the amazing places.
These are beautiful townhouses, I personally like the first one more, the modern design, the space, the home vibes, but the patio and kitchen of the second one are actually really nice. Tour more Townhouses, they better than apartments! Also, the listing agent vibes are great!
Everything in it was from Ikea and cheap.
Afternoon cash xx congratulations on the new baby coming soon xx
Carrol Gardens- another great Brooklyn neighborhood. Court Street Grocers has the best breakfast sandwich I’ve ever had!
Both places are beautiful. I wonder what kind of work one does to afford them?
Amazing places….to be honest tho….I missed your usual neighborhood tour.❤️
Thank you for your videos. Cool to see real estate in other states. Yep, us Texas Realtors have totally different housing than NY.
Four roommates at 4000 a month??? If affordable, that is worth it!! And if people get along, five roommates at 3200 each!!! What a lifestyle!
I would roomate
That gentlemen have a really good sense of style of style and look awesome 😘😘
I like the way that guy dresses he looks like an Indian sage, real cool!
Loved them both!!
Love the kitchen with the red oven!! My kinda style, Retro meets modern and still classic.
Those places are gorgeous!
Supernice, especially that back yard setup. Just the kind of place I would want IF I wanted to live in NYC...
This is Gonna B so Good CJ🔥🔥🔥👍….
$16K/month rent...🤯
Yeah I was going to ask like if you can afford 16,000 a month why aren’t you paying a mortgage?
@@jessm.porthos Maybe you’re only gonna be in town for a year or two?
@@goldenageofdinosaurs7192 I guess but also that’s just about $385,000 for two years…… I’d rather get that going into my forever home but I guess that’s just me no judgement if that someone else’s plan though
@@jessm.porthos They might be here for a project and then have to go home. NYC might have a lot of high income foreign workers for a limited time. It's possible their company foots the bill.
Why do I watch this because I live in Maine I'll never need an apartment in NY but I love your videos and your beautiful family! God bless!
Absolutely Beautiful. ❤️
You crack me up! we always want what we don't have. Makes us work a little harder😄.
You mean there is nobody who is satisfied? If so, that isn't true.
Stunning places... I want that 1 bd rental for purchase.... superb!
That first rental would be ideal for your family. It has a bedroom for each kid and an extra room you could use to film. Shame about the price.
Beautiful. Any place with a bidet is tops on my list. Where can I find a few million dollars? I wish.
Yes!!! Decent laundry. The only thing better would be an actual laundry room instead of just a little nook in the wall. But still, great laundry.
Best showings ever!!!
